Disappointed that all four of those games went to Wembley and not one went to the Millennium in Cardiff.

At least Cardiff is a good night out. Wembley is an average stadium in a rancid part of London.

I saw that just now. Ridiculous decision.

Also. The UEFA website is a **** website.
 
That's quite like saying "an unpleasant portion of a slurry pit".

The Manchester Derby is a game I desperately want to watch, but I don't think I can.:guilty:
 
Roy Hodgson got his first win as Palace boss......against Chelsea.

Great win for West Ham, Chelsea were poor and that's they're title race probably done now.
 
Full times.

West Ham 1-0 Chelsea
Tottenham 5-1 Stoke
Huddersfield 2-0 Brighton
Swansea 1-0 West Brom (thank Christ for that!!)
Burnley 1-0 Watford
Crystal Palace 2-2 Bournemouth

Good day for the home teams, Newcastle v Leicester to come.
 
Bild (I know) reports that Borussia Dortmund has sacked Peter Bosz.
 
Southampton and Arsenal finished 1- 1, Merseyside derby just kicked off and Klopp has dropped Coutinho and Firmino to the bench and gone for Solanke up front instead.

All games going ahead despite the poor weather, snowing in Liverpool.

Aaannnnddd Liverpool are 1-0 up through a great strike by Salah. Half Time.

Shocking from Klopp to take off Salah with only 1 goal up. Cost his own team there the 2 points.

Also the Manchester Derby well city deserved it let's be honest.
 
City were the better team and it was a disappointing performance from United especially Lukaku. Title race is over....for now.

I disagree with Jose when he said it was a penalty for the Herrera challenge in the box, Herrera went over to easily and deserved to be booked, Everton penalty was a penalty too as Lovren clearly pushed Calvert-Lewin.
 
I said to my friends at school that Manchester City is the team to beat this year... How far can they go?

You miss the Everton player backing into the Liverpool player? That's about as professional a dive for a penalty as you'll see.

Reports of a tunnel dust up after the Manchester derby yesterday, Man City coach Mikel Arteta apparently suffered a facial wound. Pretty much everyone is running with the story.

Right then, more Footballing stuff to come this week.

Tuesday
Burnley v Stoke
Crystal Palace v Watford (8pm)
Huddersfield v Chelsea (8pm BT)

Wednesday
Liverpool v West Brom (8pm)
Man United v Bournemouth (8pm)
Newcastle v Everton
Southampton v Leicester
Swansea v Man City
Tottenham v Brighton (8pm)
West Ham v Arsenal (8pm BT)

All games 7.45pm unless stated, BT get two TV games.

No comment from United or City about the alleged tunnel brawl, that's why is only reported for now.

Sky have had some complaints about Noel Gallagher as a guest pundit during the match yesterday, he didn't say anything offensive (I think!) he just wasn't very good...
 
Who is to blame though? We know Lukaku created opportunities for Manchester City, and I get the Mourinho was pissed off, but was it really necessary to cause such a ruckus? What happened happened. Get over it.

Hey am over it to be honest I was never anyway near it or bothered by it, I was just pointing to a few snippets of news that covered the story in reply to others pointing to the story?
If anyone needs to get over it I think that lies with Mourinho, Didn,t he have a go at Conte on the touchline for his celebrations. (Thats just one quick observation?)
If you need to ask and am going with my opinion now I think Jose Mourinho doesn,t like to see others celebrate. :(

I,ve read most articles, watch sky sports news (Quiet a lot) and most opinions belief the same. Poor Jose for being a bad sport and the instigator for the incident, But will point out thats what am reading and by no means my opinion who started it or who gives a crap, Apart from Man u fans?

This snippet from a very very man utd newspaper, Is one that I find interesting becuase it (manchestereveningnews.) is so bias to man u?

EDIT:
Another opinion by someone other than myself?

The fact that the last couple of seasons has been won by a team not in the Champions League must surely speak volumes.

That said, Pep is doing his best to prove that wrong.
 
Full times from tonight.

Burnley 1-0 Stoke
Crystal Palace 2-1 Watford
Huddersfield 1-3 Chelsea

Comfortable night for Chelsea in a nice response to the West Ham defeat, Watford were 0-1 up for a while but two yellows for Cleverly lead to a late resurgence by Palace, and the main headline is the dull affair at Burnley with not many chances but was won by a late Barnes strike which means Burnley are now fourth!
 
Really want to move on from the defeat on Sunday and hope United can win comfortably tonight.

Swansea at home to Man City and will likely get slaughtered!
